Oh shes a dirty girl and is gonna need a good cleaning.

Car looks great and I bet she will look even better in the sunshine (if we ever get any that is). Try not to run out fuel.

I got my car today. She's home and in the garage. I posted some pictures in my car journal here:

She's beautiful. CGM was my colour choice until I saw an IOM in the sun at a gathering that had several Camaro's there. Still if the IOM was not an option CGM it would have been. I always liked the dark grayish/gunmetal colors more than straight black or gray.

I'm/We are so happy for you. It's been a long time coming! Thank you so much for sharing this journey with us. Make sure you post some more pics.

Congrats Darth! Enjoy her like the rest of us!

Darth_Emma · 01-24-2010, 11:14 AM

Got my ipod working today. Had to update the firmware on it. After that, I covered it up and it's all tucked in away in the garage until the next decent weather day.

Congrats D-E
Happy for ya 'n little jealous (WAITING) lol

RCLapCar · 01-26-2010, 10:09 PM

Well it's been two weeks (two wonderful weeks) and I'm finally getting adjusted to the car. I'm still in love with how it feels to drive her. Knowing that now I CAN make that pass on the highway. I'm used to the blind spots now as well but right hand turns are still a bit edgy. Hard to tell where the damn curb is sometimes (at night especially) and I'm overly careful.

Can't wait till it gets warmer and I can give her a proper rub down.

Darth_Emma · 01-27-2010, 09:50 AM

I only drove mine the day I got it. I put it in the garage and put the cover on. I'm waiting for the weather to improve to drive it again.

You must be going nuts right about now. I would be.

Putting the cover on right away is not recommended by General Motors. The owners manual suggests waiting three months. Gives the paint extra time to thoroughly dry.

Common Sense -
I'm curious to know where you read that. The birds get in our garage and do what birds do on the cars sometimes. I was trying to protect the paint by covering it. Also, the dust blows in there too. We don't have power in our garage and we live in farm country (rural) so our garage doors stay open all day when we take a car out. I'd hate for all that dust to settle on my paint. Maybe I should remove the cover...
